## About

# Credential Access TTP Hunt Skill

Proactively hunt for MITRE ATT&CK Credential Access techniques (T1003, T1555, etc.) based on threat intelligence or hypothesis.

## Inputs

- `TECHNIQUE_IDS` - Comma-separated MITRE technique IDs (e.g., "T1003.001,T1555.003")
- `TIME_FRAME_HOURS` - Lookback period (default: 72)
- *(Optional)* `TARGET_SCOPE_QUERY` - UDM query to narrow scope
- *(Optional)* `HUNT_HYPOTHESIS` - Reason for the hunt
- *(Optional)* `HUNT_CASE_ID` - SOAR case for tracking

## Common Techniques

| Technique | Description |
|-----------|-------------|
| T1003.001 | LSASS Memory |
| T1003.002 | Security Account Manager |
| T1003.003 | NTDS |
| T1003.004 | LSA Secrets |
| T1003.005 | Cached Domain Credentials |
| T1003.006 | DCSync |
| T1555.001 | Keychain |
| T1555.003 | Credentials from Web Browsers |
| T1555.004 | Windows Credential Manager |

## Workflow

### Step 1: Research Techniques

For each technique in `TECHNIQUE_IDS`:
```
gti-mcp.get_threat_intel(query="Explain MITRE ATT&CK technique T1003.001")
```

Understand:
- What the technique does
- Common procedures/tools
- Detection methods

### Step 2: Develop Hunt Queries

**T1003.001 - LSASS Memory Access:**
```udm
metadata.event_type = "PROCESS_LAUNCH" AND
target.process.file.full_path = "C:\\Windows\\System32\\lsass.exe"
```
Look for suspicious parent processes accessing lsass.exe.

**T1003.001 - Known Dumping Tools:**
```udm
metadata.event_type = "PROCESS_LAUNCH" AND
(principal.process.command_line CONTAINS "mimikatz" OR
 principal.process.command_line CONTAINS "procdump" OR
 principal.process.command_line CONTAINS "sekurlsa")
```

**T1555.003 - Browser Credential Files:**
```udm
metadata.event_type = "FILE_OPEN" AND
(target.file.full_path CONTAINS "Login Data" OR
 target.file.full_path CONTAINS "Web Data" OR
 target.file.full_path CONTAINS "cookies.sqlite") AND
principal.process.file.full_path NOT IN ("chrome.exe", "firefox.exe", "msedge.exe")
```

**T1003.006 - DCSync:**
```udm
metadata.event_type = "DOMAIN_CONTROLLER_REPLICATION" AND
principal.hostname NOT IN @known_domain_controllers
```

**General - Credential Dumping Tools:**
```udm
metadata.event_type = "PROCESS_LAUNCH" AND
(target.process.file.full_path CONTAINS "mimikatz" OR
 target.process.file.full_path CONTAINS "lazagne" OR
 target.process.file.full_path CONTAINS "pypykatz")
```

Combine with `TARGET_SCOPE_QUERY` if provided.

### Step 3: Execute Searches

```
secops-mcp.search_security_events(text=query, hours_back=TIME_FRAME_HOURS)
```

### Step 4: Analyze Results

Look for:
- Low-prevalence events (unusual parent-child relationships)
- Access from unexpected applications
- Correlation with other suspicious activity
- Known bad tool signatures

### Step 5: Enrich Findings

If suspicious events found:
```
secops-mcp.lookup_entity(entity_value=USER_OR_HOST)
```

For file hashes:
```
gti-mcp.get_file_report(hash=HASH)
```

### Step 6: Document Hunt

Use `/document-in-case`:
- Techniques hunted with descriptions
- Queries used
- Findings (positive AND negative)
- Enrichment results
- Risk assessment

### Step 7: Escalate or Conclude

**Credential theft confirmed:**
→ Trigger `/respond-compromised-account` for affected users
→ Escalate to incident response
→ Consider password resets for exposed credentials

**No findings:**
→ Document negative results
→ Confirm detection coverage for these techniques

## Required Outputs

**After completing this skill, you MUST report these outputs:**

| Output | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| `FINDINGS` | Detected credential access activity (events, processes, files accessed) |
| `DETECTED_TECHNIQUES` | MITRE techniques observed (e.g., T1003.001, T1555.003) |
| `AFFECTED_ACCOUNTS` | Accounts potentially compromised (users whose credentials may be exposed) |

## Detection Gaps to Note

If queries return no results, consider:
- Is the required telemetry being collected?
- Are endpoint logs being forwarded to SIEM?
- Do detection rules exist for these techniques?

Document gaps for security engineering follow-up.
